Your article comes off as bitter.

As someone who loosely fits your profile, I'll offer a few thoughts.

Your article's demands on men are what turn them off of women. Outliers aside, the average man is pretty simple at his core level and relationally flexible. Women are far more emotionally driven, and they can slice and dice their feelings to no end. Men just want a safe harbor to go home to after work instead of the emotional demands and conflict that some women seem to bathe in. Men don't need finger-wagging. Men are emotional, too, but we handle our emotions differently. That's human physiology — not a fault. We don't need to be criticized for it.

I assure you, a man is happier by himself than in the toxic emotional stew that many Western women bring into a relationship — even if the dishes don't get washed and there is a pile of dirty laundry.

Your article's tone seems anecdotally accusatory—a woman complaining about men. I hope that’s not the case. There's nothing better in life than two partners who love each other in a healthy way.
